Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1) 2. AM, the city’s holding its breath Driving fast, tryna forget what you said Got the analog radio playin' a slow song We’re just neon ghosts in a city that’s gone wrong (Synth bass gets more melodic here) I’m wearing that jacket you hate Sipping on something that’s far too late You're a memory I'm trying to erase But I see you in every single face (Pre-Chorus) (Music builds, strings come in, tension increases) The air is electric, the feeling is pure I’m running, I’m running, but what’s the cure? Don't wake me up if I'm dreaming of you I’m just fading out, out of the blue... Oh, one, two, three, go! (Chorus) (MAXIMUM ENERGY, high-pitched vocal, heavy synth-pop sound) Dancing in a neon ghost town! Spinning round and never looking down! Oh, you hold me like a memory Neon ghost town, come and take me! Yeah, we’re burning, burning bright All alone in the city light! (Verse 2) (Beat continues, but with more syncopated rhythm) I saw you dancing at the corner café Same old story, different city, same play I should’ve known that you were just a mirage Just a flicker, a fake, a total camouflage But my heart beats slow, then it beats too fast Why does the best always have to be the last? (Pre-Chorus) The air is electric, the feeling is pure I’m running, I’m running, but what’s the cure? Don't wake me up if I'm dreaming of you I’m just fading out, out of the blue... (Chorus) (High-pitched, repetitive, catchy hook) Dancing in a neon ghost town! Spinning round and never looking down! Oh, you hold me like a memory Neon ghost town, come and take me! Yeah, we’re burning, burning bright All alone in the city light! (Bridge) (Tempo slows slightly, cinematic feel, dreamlike synth pad) I remember the rain on your face... No trace, no trace. I'm just a ghost, in a town... (Live 80s-style guitar solo builds energy back up) (Guitar Solo - High Energy) (Chorus) (Maximalist production: all elements, harmonies, backing vocals) Dancing in a neon ghost town! Spinning round and never looking down! Oh, you hold me like a memory Neon ghost town, come and take me! Yeah, we’re burning, burning bright All alone in the city light! (Outro) Neon Ghost Town... (Ghost town...) Yeah, we're fading... (Fade out with synths and the bassline)
